Nic Cage has a lot of
The owner of Old Bank DVD in Downtown L.A. tells TMZ Nic rented the flicks back in April — “A Star is Born” and “The King of Comedy.”
Problem is, four months later — they haven’t been returned.
Old Bank has resorted to Facebook to get Cage’s attention (they say they can’t get a hold of him) posting …”If anyone happens to run into Nicolas Cage wandering the neighborhood, please kindly remind him he’s had [our DVD's] for a few months.”
They hilariously add, “Old Bank DVD is not responsible if he gets mad, bursts into flames and beats you up though.”
Aw, I would’ve gone with a Wicker Man reference. NO, NOT THE DVDS! AUUUUGH IT’S IN MY EYES! Anyway, Old Bank had taken to mocking Cage on their Facebook page, posting pictures of Nic Cage photoshopped onto other peoples’ bodies, which seems like a weird “punishment.” If posting Nic Cage as everyone pictures is something you do when he owes you money, he needs to settle up with half my Facebook timeline. But according to Old Bank, the harassment worked:
So, Just got off the phone with Nic and while he was somewhat put off by the media circus surrounding the issue of his late DVD’s that were supposed to have been returned by an assistant before going on location, he seemed generally understanding of our good natured (though, slightly honey badgerish) goofing. Anyway, Old Bank DVD would like to offer a sincere apology To Mr. Cage for any aspersions cast upon his character by our efforts to retrieve our movies. Nic, who is a great customer that still supports local brick and mortars like us, has kindly and quickly taken care of the matter by reimbursing us for the DVD’s and a token amount of late fees in accordance to our standard (and generous) policy. As a token of our appreciation for all the fine work Mr. Cage has done in film, with any rental this weekend, our customers may also pick one Nicolas Cage movie for free – and that’s like half our store, I mean seriously, that’s one hard working actor ;-). Welcome back anytime Nic.
Aw, everyone loves a happy ending (except your mom – makes her wrists tired).
Still no word on when Gary Busey is planning to return the wooden Indian he “borrowed” from a cigar store. I’m guessing not any time soon, since he’s taken to calling it “kemosabe” and appointed it his official “Secretary of Good Times.”
[thanks to Kelly for the tip]



That Indian promised to take Gary on a vision quest, but they always end up at the highlighter section in Office Max.
I’m so confused by your piece here Mancini-horn. It APPEARS you mocked Gray Busey, which is crazy talk. Instead I’m sure you mean to gopher the meter maid like a surf nazzi pizza takeout, where’s my pants, tomfoolery.
(van screeches to a halt, Gary’s agent jumps out of sliding door, throws him in as two other agents placate him with dream catchers and lone wolf t-shirts)
“You people disgust me! Taking advantage of an auteur like that! THAT MAN WAS IN “The Gingerdead Man”, DOES THAT MEAN NOTHING TO YOU HEATHENS?!?!?”
(van screeches off)

SPELLING!!!! You are a son of a bitch! And I’m not talking about you Aaron!
Nic would’ve returned the DVDs sooner, but he couldn’t figure out how to rewind them.

“You can have your DVDs back, but NOT THE FEES!! NO, NOT THE FEES!!@!!@!“

Oh man
That night, I had a dream. I drifted off thinking about happiness, birth and new life, But now I was haunted by a vision of… He was horrible. The lone biker of apocalypse. A man with all the powers of Hell at his command. He could turn turn the day into night and lay to waste everything in his path. He was especially hard on little things-the helpless and the gentle creatures. He left a scorched earth in his wake befouling even the sweet desert breeze that whipped across his brow. I didn’t know where he came from or why. I didn’t know if he was dream or vision. But I feared that I myself had unleashed him. For he was the fury that would be as soon as Old Bank DVDs found their little copy of “A Star is Born” gone.
Nic Cage’s love for fossils is why he won’t upgrade to BluRay
Nic Cage tried to watch Babe once but the movie’s refusal to release the pig frustrated and angered him.
(Horrible Southern accent) Put the movies back in the return box.
I wonder which version of A Star is Born Nick rented? (The F@cebook page probably explains it but I’m afraid Jesse Eisenberg will steal my soul if I go there).
OMG, it’s “NIC” not “NICK”!! I knew that! Please don’t kill me, Mr. Cage…
I worked at the local Blockbuster back in 2004 when Tilda Swinton was here (New Zealand) shooting Narnia. She came in (I wasn’t working when she came in, I just stumbled upon her account) and signed up with us. Her account read “CURRENTLY SHOOTING CHRONICLES OF NARNIA IN SOUTH ISLAND” and her only rental was Adaptation. A movie she features in. She hired one of her own fucking movies from us.
AND NEVER RETURNED IT.
I still feel the bile rise when I see her “David Bowie-but-weird-looking” ass face.
Nic Cage’s assistant is in so much trouble right now. She has to play the “bear suit” game for a week as punishment for forgetting to return that DVD.
